Ping API type definitions

Ping#

The Ping component implements a ping service based on the ICMPv6 protocol. The component is able to send ICMPv6 packets, receive the associated responses and compute the round-trip latency. Using the sl_wisun_ping_request() API, an application emits a single ping packet. To receive the pong response, the application can then call the sl_wisun_ping_response() API.

sl_wisun_ping() function provides a simple solution to periodically send and receive ping packets. To stop the process, call the sl_wisun_ping_stop() function. A ping test is configuratble in size, number of pings sent, and timeout if a response is not received.

To initialize the component, call sl_wisun_ping_init() function.
